We regret to announce the d eath of Mr. Tolbert Cheatham, an esteemed citizen of our District, on last Saturday night. His funeral took place on Sunday last at Sharon Church, and his remains were interred with Masonic honors.

CORONER'S INQUEST.-On Thursday, 28th ult., an inquest was held on the body of Jane Harvey, a white woman, found dead near her residence in this village. B. W. Shand, Esq., acted as Coroner. Aftor a thorough investigation of the case, the jury rendered a verdict that the deceased came to j her death by strangulation, at the hands of Daniel Howard. Said Howard was committed to jail.

AEBTVAL or TBOOPS.-Some fotr or five compa? nies of tho Fortieth Begiment United States Col? ored Troops arrived in this city Saturday lost by rail. ; They are destined for Charleston, and will ; go immediately on. Some of these soldiers paid a visit to the city yesterday, and created a little excitement by some disorderly conduct. Theso men are probably destined for the forts of I Charleston, as were five hundred similar troops destined for the forts at tho mouth of Cape Fear River, who were on board tho steamer Flambeau, which was wrecked a few days since at the mouth of that river. The troops weie all saved. [Richmond Dispatch of Monday. Relief for ?ne South, The following is tho debate in tho Senate on Saturday last, on the proposition to relieve the | distress of tho South : Mr. Trumbull (rep.) of Ul., from the Judiciary ! Committee, lcported a joint resolution appro? priating ono million of dollars for the relief of des? titute people of the South and Southwest, of any and all classes, to bo expended undsr the suoerin tendonce of tho Commissioner of the Freedmen's | Buroau in supplies of food. Mr. Trumbull, in ex? plaining tho necessity for passing the above, said that General Howard had called on tho Judiciary Committee this morning and testified that unless something of tho kind was done there would be actual starvation among the disloyal portion of the S. .uth. Foi mer appropriations had hoon sufficient to provide for the actual wants of freodmen and loyal refugees, but under the resolutions passing them no money could be spent in relieving the destitution of the disloyal peoplo of the South. It was now asked to extend the aid to all alike. The recommendation of the committee was $580,750 less than that asked for by General Howard. After further discussion by Messrs. Stewart, (rep.) of Novada, and Pomeroy, of Kansas, in favor of the resolution, Mr. Spraguo, (rop.) of B. ?., moved to amend tho resolution by incroasin.' .'ir appropriation to $1,500,000. Mr. Doolittle, (rep.) >. *YU., advocated the amendment. After further ditcussion the amendaient was I disagreed to. A debate Bprung upon the subjset of the r?solu non, in tho courso of which Mr. Stewart said the Indian Buroau was a cesspool into which all tho surplus funds of tho country were teemed, Mr. Harlan, (rep.) of Iowa, asked Mr. Stewart where he got such information as wan anted that ? assertion ? Mr. Stewart replied in a speoch oritizing in gen oral tones the management of Indian Affairs, and the repeated conflict between the civil and military authorities growing out of it. Mr. Harlan said rhero was no such conflict. Tho only conflict there was from a difference of opinion between tho peoplo of the Territories and tho peo Sle tit tho moro civilized regions as to the proper res.tmont of the Indians. The people of the Ter? ritories wero for tho extermination of the Indians, and tho army sympathized with thom. The people of the States held different opinions. Mr. Harlan then denied that there was corruption in the In-, dian Department of the Govern men t. Mr. Johnson rose to suggest that the debate waa taking too wide a rango, and wandering too far from tho subject properly before the Senate. Tho debate was resumed on the subject of the resolution, and was participated in by Messrs. Norton, Drake, Co olding, Howe, Saulsbury, Hen? derson, Wilson, Doolittle, Corbett, Frelinghuysen and Trumbull. Tho resolution was then passed. An Engl:sh journal says : "At no time since the Russian war has tho establishment cf Woolwich Arsenal been moro actively engaged than at pros sent, notwithstanding the numerous nowreeoutces of improved machinery and mechanism which have advanced with Ute time. A moderate supply of th?' now rifles and ammunition is despatched periodi? cally by the ordnance store .vesseu to tho whole of the ont stations, and, in coses of emergency, by railway and other means.

[SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE OF THE DATL? NEWS ] CONGRESSIONAL AIViOrmrOTENT. WASHINGTON, March 9.-Congress has now noth? ing more important to pass upon than tho day it will adjourn, and upon this question there is likely to bo no little vexation of legislative spirit. True, tho Sonate have a considerable list of Presidential appointees to dispose of, and the number is being largely aggregated every day, but as, at tho present rate of senatorial confirmation, these nominations could not receive final action for a decade to come, it is manifest that the latter body may quito as well retire and wait for a more con? genial season for transacting the work in hand. And apropos, ot the possibility of such a sensi? ble conclusion hoing arrived at, it is woll to men? tion tho rumor that hovers over the political cir? cles of the capital to the effect that his Excellency intends to take his revenge ofter tho prerogative of his office, in immediately convening the 40th Congress, after about the time it would seom likely to have become comfortably settled, and respectively diffused under the representative and senatorial vines and fig trees of private lifo, and again set,the Sonate at tho task of wrangling over the Executive appointments. This rumor is the more plausible from the fact that there is manifest prejudice to our governmen? tal resources, by reason of refusal to sanction Mr. JOHNSON'S appointments. In the Postoffice Dop art mont alone there is reported to be three millions of. dollars in cash, at present outstanding in the hands of chief clerks of posloffices, whose appointees have been denied by the Senate from time to time. These clerks, of course, give no bond, nor are re? sponsible in the value of a picayune for moneys lost, stolen or defaulted. In other departments the same evil exists, and in none more deplorably than in the line of Internal Revenue Collectors and - Assessors. Theso latter districts are particularly unsettled, and productive of szaoll revenue to the Government by reason of the' continued local : snarl over the agents for appraising and collection, all of which is directly incident to the dictatorial action of the Senatorial cabal'at .Washington. And so it goes in every caprice of this "rump" of a "rump Congress;" which, while it retards or utterly defeats the harvest of Government re? sources, piles up the liabilities of the national purse', ' as though greenbacks. had but to be in 'creased and multiplied tho country over, to fill up the measure of national prosperity. ;,' p "FASHION ABLE IDEEB8 COMING TO G BIEF. Hie sc?ne of Washington gaiety just closed has" been a very heavy draft upon the pockets of its de? votees, whether classed with he entertainers or entertained.

But the twenty odd young dissipants whom shame has overtaken and blasted publicly, there can be no harm to men? tion, inasmuch as our capital society itself joins in their condemnation and ceremonious excommuni? cation. In the main, young gentlemen of Washington, considered undeniably eligible to the charms and nonsence of the gay season," are officers in the regular army, and so popular ana genuine sit? con? sidered their rdaim? that not a little of the ruinous expense involved in keeping pace with thc wants and conceits of the nymphs of haul tort, "ia graci? ously thrust upon their slender pay. lieutenants cannot stand the demand ; Captains shudder at it; and even Brigadiers, with a multiplicity of brevets, [axe made more nervous than when facing the ene? my.-1'And thus it hos 'come to bo a by-word and ?uidnbttabio faut, mai miuiuuurStraps: wstu'lHung- - fe.trfolly worsted in the course of the winter's " engagement." > Meantime the money-changers have been reaping harvests upon an average rate of interest of five per cent, a month; and, in frequent in? stances, double that usury. And out of this, again, has grown a system of mortgaging officers' accounts and pay-rolls a twelvemonth in advance, and finally the ruined principals have completed the succession pf folly by forging duplicates, and even triplicates, of their official vouchers against the Paymaster. 'It is not an exaggeration to say that the number of those despondents' aro twenty at least, and foll half of them have been "the bright particular stars" of our fashionable firma? ment the winter through. Just at present I must not mention names, as tho Government is kindly lending its connivunco to admit of the squall "blowing over," and a r? -let intervention upon the part of friends and relatives who propose to restore to Caesar the things that are Casar's, and so relieve young spendthrift from the odium of his "mistake." Suffice it to say, that the list embraces certain rolicksome scions of distinguished houses, in some of which the pater? nal heads are high in the register of our naval ad? miralty, sud, in occasional instances, doing duty in the administration uf martial law over the mili? tary districts of the South. While dropping a tear over this item of fashion? able vicissitude, I must not neglect to mention an additional case in point : That A. H. LEE, Vho ab? sconded about lunch time from the treasury de? partment a few weeks ago, and who took with bim a batch of seven-thirties, footing up to nearly fifty thousand, has returned to the capital ofter an eventful spree in St. Louis. He now enjoys tho retirement of the public jafl. Society, which he courted assiduously and successfully during th? wintry gaieties gone by, has not yet applied for admission to comfort the prisoner. VIDEX. The Impeachment Question. The Washington correspondent of the New York Herald, under date of 7th hurt., says : The debate in the House to-day on the. proposed impeachment indicates pretty clearly tho temper of momoers on that exciting subject. The ex? treme Radicals still hug to their bosoms their old darling of immediate Executive decapitation, but the moderates advise prudence, deliberation and calmness in prosecuting a work of such solemn import. Mr. Ashley evidently intends to keep up his fire on "tho man at the other end of the avenue," for to-day he uttered an anti-Johnson denunciation fiercer, if possible, than any before. Gesticulating excitedly, he remarked that he would say nothing as to the terrible doubt that oppress? ed his mind, os to complicity with the assassination ' conspiracy, and the mysterious connection be? tween death and treachery. The utterance of this dark insinuation again created a profound sensation among the spectators assembled in the galleries, including a liberal rep? resentation of the diplomatic corps. Tho Demo? cratic members alone seemed to take the matter in an unconcerned manner, laughing at Ashley's ex? cited manner and interrupting him with semi jocose questions. The speech of Mr. Spalding, who called the "impeachment project ."a stupen? dous folly," and asked if the policy of the Crom? well times and the soenos enacted under Danton, Murat and Robespierre were to be repeated, made quite on impression. General Butler replied in a characteristic manner to Mr. Spalding, but his point was simply the old one that President John? son should be removed at all hazards if he stood in the way of peace,, harmony, unity, btw and re? construction.' On this subject of impeachment it is difficult to soo tho end. The extreme Radical element, which favors hot-headed measures of suspension, secna to have met with a check. I have heard Bopubli ? cans express the opinion that impeachment is all humbug, that tho Judiciary Committee failed miserably in sustaining any serious charge, and that there had been enough of the matter until the end of Andrew Johnson's term. This savors very much of backing down from tho solemn po? sition taken by the dominant party last session. The action of the Senate caucus to-day, in laying on the table tho proposition of last night's Repub? lican caucus, changes suddenly the probabilities that existed this morning of the' adjournment on Monday next, the difficulty presenting itself of the inability of one branob sdjourYdhg CkKgresa with? out the consent of the other. It hos been made manifest to-day that there is not only among many of tho Republican members an unwilling concur? rence with tho course dotermincd upon last night, but so strong a hostility to this course on tho part of a majority of the Senate, that it is impossible to carry into effect lost night's determination. The feeling entertained by a majority bf the Senate that tho facts thus far elicitod by the House Judici? ary Committee would provo a dangerous basis upon which to proceed to impeachment will form tho House to agree to. an adjournment to October next. Senators take the position that if there is any sincerity in the movement of the leading prosecutors tho House ehou.d proceed immediate-' ly to carry out their programme, or consent to an adjournment over the summer months, and there? by virtually acknowledge the abandonment of the whole cracokion. A leading Repr?sentatif von be? ing informed to-day of the action, or want of action, of *ne Sonate' caucus, exclaimed, "I am very glad, ot it." . -It-is claimed by some of tho pronounced Conservatives that many of those who voted for tho adjournment to May were inducoti to 'do so only through tho stimulant of a severo parly disciplino, 'I Our New York Letter. [FBOM OUI! EEGCXAB CWEBESFONBENT.] NEW YORK, March 8.-Many years ago, -when tho swill milk excitement was the all absorbing topic of tho day here, when men grew rich by means of tho disgraceful tramo in the milk of human un? kindness to innocsnt cows, the Ledger made its mark by exposing the cow-herd-ly details, and the expose had the effect of increasing tho circulation of tho Ledger and stopping the circulation of the objectionable mille. Now, however, the evil has taken fresh growth, the poor cows are again shut un, cabined, cribbed and confined in dark, dank places, and thoy give a quantity of bad, diseased milk, which is sold for good healthy greenback. Though tho Ledger may not take up arms again in defence of the poor animals, the cows have anothor champion and defender, or rather a host of them, and the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals has drawn tho sword in their boll alf, I call to mind tho pretty little nursery rhyme where gratitude to tho poor cow is expressed in the touching lines, "I thank the pretty cow, who gives me milk to soak my bread," &c., and shudder at tho thought that ungrateful men should subject tho poor creatures to such torture as brings on all diseases that cow flesh is heir to, for the purpose of increasing the quantity, whilst it deteriorates the quality of tho bread soaking compound. Por? tia says that tho quality of mercy is not strained ; the quality of swill milk is perhaps bost discovered by straining the difference between mercy and milk, wherefore must all men in general, and milk-men in particular, be merciful to the poor cowB, and to bring about this consummation so devoutly to be wished for, this new phase of tho milky-way, HANS BEECH and his cc-laborors are staining every nerve to throw all the milk away that comos from tho swilling process. : C?ABK, WEBSTER & Co., the enterprising pro? prietors of the gift establishment at No* 62 Brood way, have come to grief, or rather grief has come to them in the shape and form of a squad of offi? cers, who mode a grand raid upon them yesterday. These honest gentlemen were proprietors of the | Banker's and Merchant's Grand Presentation En? tertainment, which had given, out circulars in which it was modestly announced that the concern was frorth $1,287,148, the entire amount of which wouH|bo'distributed in;prizes to be. drawn for st Cooper Institute on the 25th day of April next. Thousands of yellow envelopes were found ad? dressed to thousands of groen individuals, residing for the most part in the rural districts, and tickets with lucky numbers were scattered about most abundantly, but the $1,287,148 were not found. The "bankers,'' however, were arrested, together ; with many outsiders, or rather insiders, who were interested in tho success of the scheme, all are now held in durance vile. The Fenians are much elated on the strength of the news of the uprising in Ireland, which is gene? rally behoved; taken at best, however, there is not much in tho news to be elated or violently excited about, yot the Fenians aro rather imaginative and hopeful, and they hug. the belief that the great Irish ball has been opened at last. How the dan ce will end remains to be seen; meanwhile the "Irish'' will bo the dance of dances, rivalling even the fashionable "German." SAM CO&LXEB and BARBEY AARON, the two un Jerome-liko gentlemen of pugilistic fame, cannot J agree as to the spot where they sholl disfigure each other's countenances for a purse of five thousand | dollars.

The members of the new Dental College eat their first annual dinner last night at the St James Hotel; speeches were made on the subject of teeth; toasts were drunk to men who deal in teeth, and j it was proven lonclusivoly that when a glass is in? serted between the front teeth of an individual, and the liquor contained therein is carefully poured down into the throat, through the mouth, no harm ensues, and tho dental organization re- I mains unimpaired, and ready for a repetition of the process. It was a feast of reason, and teeth, [ and a flow of good wines, and the Dentists had t jolly time generally, making first-rate speeches, Binging good songs, and tolling .stories with the most approved good Order. They seemed, all < them, to be such a whole-souled, jovial, good natured set of people, these happy drawers of teeth, that one could hardly behove that they were the some awful creatures who terrify us so when we ' take our seat in their easy (?) chairs, and tremble as they handle their instruments of torture. One among the good things said at the dinner, or rather after the dinner, was in the form of i conundrum, wherein it is asked why dentists are always sad, and to which the reply is that they are always looking down in the mouth.

As our community is much interested at present about Life Insurance, and yet has not long since turned much attention to it, we insert the sub? joined circular as expressive of a judgment partic? ularly entitled to consideration. It is that of a community which maybe deemed especially quali? fied, as well by reason of an experience as long, if not longer, than that of any other in the United States, as of its high distinction for mercantile education, to form a correct appreciation of the various features and advantages of institutions involving so profound a system of science as these.

To Che Agents of Hie New York Ufe Insurance Company: , Attention is colled to the following summary of tho business transacted during the year ending November 1, 1866, by the various Life Insurance Companies, at their respective agencies in the city of Boston, arranged according to the amount of premiums received. Tho statement is prepared from sworn returns to the Insurance Commissioner, made in compli? ance with the laws of this Commonwealth. It may be here observed that tho New York Life Insurance Company, first on the list, did not establish their agency in this city until November 1st, 1868, while the agencies of the principal Com- j ponies herein enumerated have been eetablishei and actively engaged for a period of ten years or more. Without desiring to institute erpecmUy invidious comparisons with other Companies, all of which are engaged in an .exalted and philan? thropic labor; and each of them contribute greatly to mitigate the hardships and perils of otherwise unprotected widowhood and orphanage, still we are of the opinion, as an expression of the dis? criminating judgment of so intelligent and con? servative a community as this, it is well deserving the careful consideration of communities else? where.

The Central Hotel, at Washington, wa?.-fired''by j ?sn uicendiary:^day night^XhocZ&5>u&U?xnsays :J brick wails, which have long been known to be in a dangerous condition, tumbled. and crashed in every direction, resulting in terrible disasters to 1 human life. The building next to the Central, on the Avenue, was the restaurant of Kr. P. Em ri eli, a well-known German restaurant-keeper of this city, and os a meeting of the officers of the German Building [ Association was called at the place,' a number of Earsons were in a room in tho rear portion of tho uil ding, which was much lower in height than the Central House. Hr. Emrich and his bar tender [ were removing a piano from the room when a por? tion of the rotten wall came! down, crushing that portion of the building completely. John Ehrig, the bar-tender, waa taken out dead. About the same time Mr.. Muhlinghausen, agent of the German Insurance Company, was taken out and conveyed to Congress Hall, a restaurant near at hand, kept by Mr. John McCarty, where he re? ceived every possible alleviation of his Bufferings from the proprietor and his assistants, and the medical attentions of Dr, Miller, but died in about half an hour. He had received severe injuries in- - ternally, and a bad cut upsn his head. He bore his mortal hurts -nth remarkable fortitude. Mr. Emrich was buried ht the ruins, and at half past twelve his body had not been found. Mr. B. Os tenn over baker .at 287 F street, be? tween Twelfth ona Thirteenth, was taken out with bis leg badly fractured and conveyed to his resi? dence. Dr. May will penform amputation this morning, A female cook, colored, emoloyed ot Emrich's, was buried in tho ruins at last? accounts. Three persons escaped with bruises, more or less severe-one of them, Lev. Turpin, formerly of the Canterbury. . ,'1 .? -i ? Mr. Emrich hos a wife- and six children, one, i son, residing in Baltimore. -. The hotel portion of the building destroyed was not occupied. The front on the Avenue was occu? pied by Mr. Mattingly, ticket agent for Southern j routes, and Mr. Lolly's aucfcon shop, in which the fire originated. Two yoong men, named Jacob J. Lamer and George McDaniel, were arrested on suspicion of .arson by Detectives Kell J and Bigeley, and are held at headquarters for a hearings The Fenians. . As we see it announced fist Mr. JOHN MITCHEL is. now the Head Centre of (Pcnianism, ind os it is' understood that he is one of (he staff of th e Bi di? mond Dispatch, tho following, clipped from last Monday's issue of that paper, w?l to read with in? terest: ; " ' ? These people wfll not give the. British Govern? ment any rest. They are)constantly rising, and the Government as stoadiy engaged tn putting thom down.. . They , aro row manifesting 'them? selves in many parts of Ireland, and the police and military are on the ruh, like an alarmed com? munity when the woods aril mountains are on fire, hurrying from point-to poiit to put ont the fi?mes. We suppose, like that fir|t, the Fenians will be again temporarily put Od;'but the embers will contin?e ulive undorneain, and will burst out again oed again, until semi dav England will have to give np Ireland. We had begun to hope that Ireland would suspend operations and wait to seo what inroads chartism and the leagues made upon the British Government, j We suspect, however, that, looking to example) abroad, the Irish ap? prehended that they hadjas little to expect from John Bright as from Queck Victoria, and preferred to take then- chances' m another fight. They must go to the wall again. I ..... Bat most assuredly thes* repeated and desperate I I demonstrations must exori a moral influence either j towards the mitigation, ot the British role or to the detriment of British I power before the world. England having given up her attitude of dictator general and settler of tuaafiairs of the world, and having turned broker, manufacturer, sind shop? keeper, is growing contemptible in the eyes of those who lately feared her, and there are powers which to-day itch to pick d "quarrel with her. Even ?he United States has given the lion-turned-shop? keeper a kick-nay, several kicks-with the too of a brogan-end - the animal has made no more ado but rub the place a little! Now, when anybody does get into a row with that kingdom, her pro? vinces will drop off, and discontented Ireland w?l welcome the invader and rolly under his flag. These things may happen some day or other, and Feniardsm is in the meantime not without its sug? gestions., Every country is bound to have its rise, j progress and downfall, anil 'England' must repoat this sort of history. She kay yet esteem it happi? ness to be allowed the limite of her own little isle, having surrendered everything else. t*HE 3XLLI0EBENT republics of South America | and Spain are tobe represented at o Peace Con? ference at Washington on tho first of April, pro? vided tho replies of the Gov erm en ts, to which Secretary Seward's circular on the subject is ad? dressed, are of .a favorable character. Our Gov? ernment hopes to bring about a pacification by I brmging the parties together. - This step is taken j in accordance with the spirit' of certain resolu? tions which were adopted hythe House of Re? presentatives on the 17thof December last, and which concur with the sentiments of the President. Tho Conferonco will consist of plenipotentiaries of Spain, Peru, Chile, Ecuador and Bolivia, to consider and agree opon terras of o permanent peace whioh shall oe equal, just and honorable to oil the bellig? erents: ana in caso of disagreement of the pleiu potentaartos, it is (raggoated that the President of the United Staten designate some State or sover? eign to be an umpire to decido ali questior.3 which shall bo referred to, hirr.by tua Con?ere??e, and .the decision of that*jmpiro ?hall bo final and mu? tually binding. Sofioon as such Conference shall TU? Revolution. In tho Houso of Representatives, Thursday, Mr. BKOOKS, of Now York, denounced with groat warmth tho conduct of the revolutionists in and out of Congress. Tho following passage from his speech gives us his view of the present and future of tho country: ? Ho would say to tho gentleman from Ohio [Mr. Spaulding], who stood beru as a Girond against tho Jacobins, that the history of the Girondists was in this place to be written; and although such mon as ho attempt to arrest, the revolution, he [Mr..Brooks] did not think the revolution was here to stop. He did not believe that it was half writ? ten or half acted out, unless all history was at fault. Wo aro now repeating the history of Au? gustus and Julius Caesar, and the Government is passing from a republic to a despotism. Revolu? tions never stop. The Girondists, the Conserva? tives, aro to be overwhelmed by the Jacobins; and when we shall have lost all our Uberties, some fu? ture Napoleon, yot unknown, will riso up from tho chaos and rescue the country from anarchy through a military despotism. Honce the resist? ance of tho gentleman from Ohio [Mr. Spaulding], and tho partial resistanco of the gentleman from Pennsylvania [Mr. Miller], would bo in vain. Moro than one-half of tho territory of the old Re? public was already undor a military despotism, and there was no more protection in the Southern States for life, liberty or property, than under tho dominions of the Sultan or the Czar. The mUitary government bill, now over ten millions of people, white and black, was to bo extended over tho North and West before the revolution was finish? ed. While he greeted the voice of the gentleman from Ohio [Mr. Spaulding], and welcomed the calmly resisting tones of the gentleman from Pennsylvania. [Mr. Miller], he knew, if history were correct, there was tobe no escape for any of us. The gentloman from Massachusetts [Mr. But? ler], in his- specifications of impeachment, said that this House would be false to itself if it shrank from impeachment now. The gentleman was right. The ball of revolution which had been set in motion was not to be stopped, but was to roU over the House and the country. They who em? bark in revolutions can never shrink. They must always go on. Congressional Chaplains. Congress, like the elder Pendennis, patronizes religion because it is respectable. It pays a par? son to.do its praying, and. he pays them bock by making his prayers harmonize exactly with the spirit and policy of the majority who elect him. Mr. RAYMOND, of the New York Times, who hos been a witness to the business for the last two years, gives his impressions as follows ; Religion, like everything else in Washington, is shamelessly prostituted to the necessities and con? veniences of partisan politics. Chaplains are elected just as door-keepers and tide-waiters are appointed, on account of their political opinions, ind they are expected to pray and preach in the service and for the profit of the party that eleots them. Porty zeal is often quite os apparent in the opening prayer of the Congressional Chaplain as in the wara harangue of the Treasury Clerk. The Chaplain is expected to pray for his porty Friends and ol his porty foes. Usually his petition is a summary of tho proceedings of the preceding day, and a statement of what ought to be done on che day at hand. For every bill passed and vote given m accordance with party purposes and plans, devout thanks (if anything of that kind con be called dovout) are returned to the Almighty, who is earnestly exhorted to. open the eyes and chango the votes of everybody who stands on the other 3ide. . The .irreverence .of some of these so-called provers often horners on blasphemy. They are seldom anything more than stump-speeches mada with dosed eyes and addressed ostensibly to the Father of au; while in sentiment, language and. general style, they-would shook any mteUigent and cultivated audience, A Southern Soldier's Opinion. General CHAXMEBS, of Mississippi, whose gal? lantry mode him conspicuous in the war, has writ? ten a letter lo REVERDY JOHNSON (dated March 2d), from which the following passage is taken: I believe firmly in the doctrine of secession, and I behove that we did secede, and that when we were conquered we were a foreign nation; and I thorefore believe that- the United States have a right to prescribe new terms if we should make a new alliance with her. Believing this, and knowing that tho President al. ne cannot make a treaty of peace with a foreign government, I never have believed that the action of the President in his efforts to reconstruct the Union was right ; but I gladly supported him and supported his plan, because it was more liberal to my people than the congressional plan. But since he cannot carry out his plan-einoe tne Ktrja^'e-Couxi canil?iCncTW"'Ilford rxa adequate protection, and may bo soon changed so as to be hostile to us-and since the Louisiana hill and the confiscation bill are being pressed by the extreme Radicals, with a fair prospect of forcing them on us if the agitation continue, I am for closing the contract with Congress on the terms which it pro? poses, . . \ ?-. - A TartrMPH OF FBEEDOH.-The mails ' by the' steamer City of Antwerp contain details of the re-. sf oration of the Hungarian Constitution by th? Emperor of Austria. This event is a great triumph for the Hungarians, at which the friends of free? dom in every country should rejoice. It marks the success of the canse for which Kossuth was driven into exile in 1848-'49. The Hungarians, it win be remembered, flew to arms in defence of their constitutional rights, which were jeopardized ny the centralizing policy of the Austrian Govern? ment. The result belongs to history.' 'Austria, in the pride of her power and in the first flush of suc? cess, abolished the Constitution of Hungary, and undertook to govern the kingdom by military law. The Hungarians adopted a policy of inactivity. They submitted to what they could not prevent. They could not oppose Austria by physical force, but they wearied and weakened her by o moral op? position and a passive resistanco until Austria is at last forced to conciliate them by the formal resto? ration of their ancient constitutional privileges. . The above extraordinary editorial is from the N, Y. Cornmerciat Advertiser ot the 6th,. (Radical)-a taper which exults over the action of - Congress in placing over the South a military, despotism, and has had no policy huta ''centralizing" one. A few years hence, it may have come sufficiently to its senses and to a knowledge pf the use of terms, to print the some , article, substituting the ten Southern States for Hungary, and Congress for Austria._ THE POETE CONCEDING TO CRETE.-The maila from Europe bring us intelligence of great uneasi? ness in tho Ottoman Government. The Ministers of the Sultan believe the situation to be critical, and this has led them to entertain the idea of "Representative Chambers," in order to conciliate the Greeks'. ' This; idea is not a new one. In 1859 it was in tile plan of the great conspiracy which numbered sixty to eighty thousand adherents. The spirit bf tho reform demanded by that party has survived the suppression of the insurrection referred to, and now breaks ont anew. The brother of the Viceroy of Egypt has placed himself at the head of the Reform party, .and the very heir to the throne; MATJBAD EFFENDI, is favorable to the views entertained by the party. It is no wonder then, that the Porte yields to this pressure, and the fear of trouble with its powerful subject, the Viceroy of Egypt, and the concession to the Greeks will prob? ably save the empire from disruption. Episcopal. METHODIST CHURCH.-The action of the Baltimore Conference, has secured what that Conference so much desired-a change of the name of the church from "M. E. Church, South," to "Episcopal Methodist Church," and also, we suppose, the introduction of tho lay feature into tho ruling bodies of the church. To ratify these changes the former proposition lacked only forty eight votes before the Baltimore Conference acted, and the latter a somewhat larger number, but not so large, we think, as that of the votes cast for it in this Conference. The former change disembar? rasses the church in the border and northern States, while the latter will probably cause the ac? cession to the Episcopal Methodist Church of the entire Methodist Protestant Church in the South? ern States (including Maryland).. It will be seen that several munsters from the Northern Metho? dist Church have already joined tho . Baltimore Conference. When Dr. Doggett, as he then was, and Dr. Edward first suggested this change of name, we took occasion, to approve tho proposition. t Richmond Dispatch. A NICE POINT or LAW.-Chancellor Johnson, of South Carolina, has just given-an interesting de? cision. The case was one of a purchase made in 1862, when the buyer paid two thousand dollars in Confederate money at thfr timo of tho purchase, and gave two notes for thoTialance, one payable at twelve months, the other at two years. In 1883 the first note waa paid, when' due, in Confederate morney. In 1864 a part of the second note was paid in Cc??aderato money, about a month before the note was doe. When this note matured, the purchaser came forward with the remainder and offered it in Confederate money, brit it-was re? fused. The question came up whether the pur? chaser had not performed bia contract as far ss ho could be expected to do Ba After an able argu? ment the Court held that the balance was still dat?, and that it should be computed In the proportion that the whole of tho original debt bears to the value of the purchase in present currency, giving . credit for all payments in tho same ratio:- . An ap? peal was token. SAVED FBOM. HANOINO.-A lata decision of ike SupfjjtUB Court of Alabama saved one Aaron Cros? by n-om'"stretching homo."
